MI vs RR 2025
Mumbai Indians have now turned the corner from their slow start, and are striving for a top two finish. On Thursday they can give themselves the best chance when facing Rajasthan Royals at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
Hardik Pandya-led side Mumbai are on an incredible run, having won five games consecutively to climb to second in the table. Boasting an elite batting line-up and bowling unit in this tournament, Mumbai cannot be underestimated as one of their opponents in any format of cricket tournament.
Rajasthan have struggled in this year’s edition of IPL and are currently sitting in the bottom half of the table, meaning they need to win their remaining three matches if they hope to reach the playoffs.
However, they showed promise against Gujarat Titans when 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi hit an astonishing 35-ball century and helped his side thrash them by eight wickets to stay within striking distance for one of four spots in the final four tournaments.
the Royals’ middle order has failed to produce consistent performances; Shubham Dubey and Nitish Rana have had difficulty with their bat, while Hemron Hetmyer has fallen short. Furthermore, their bowling has been inconsistent; Jofra Archer has been the standout with 10 wickets at an acceptable economy rate but lacks support from others.
